I'd like Nishikori to win but on the other hand, no one wants to be deprived of the next match up against Nadal.

I'm looking forward to Nishikori v Federer. That should test Roger.

Doubt it. Federer is looking strong.

Well it's been neck and neck. Nishikori has certainly not given him an easy ride.

But right now Federer is looking like going up 2 sets to 1.

Quite a tough 3rd set there for Federer.

Merlin5 · 10 Jul 2019 at 18:05

I really hope Nishikori can hold on and take this to a 5th set.

an0nym0us · 10 Jul 2019 at 18:22

Break up now for Federer. Hope he can close this out quickly to save his legs for Nadal match.

Looking fwd to Federer v Nadal

I haven't seen any Djokovic highlights but Nadal looks unreal so far and very eager for the title.

ShiWarrior · 11 Jul 2019 at 08:50

Who's your money on to take it all the way and take the title? I'm thinking Nadel

Can't see fed or nad beating djok

I reckon a Djokovic vs Nadal final, with Djokovic winning.

Managed to get around to watching Murray and Williams yesterday which was an awesome surprise given I was only expecting a few games of doubles and they had played on centre court the previous two rounds. First time I had entered the ballot so got incredibly lucky.

First game I watched was Groenefeld & Schuurs vs Krejcikova & Siniakova, then Hsieh & Strycova vs Mertens & Sabalanka and finally Murray & Williams vs Soares and Melichar.

Second game probably produced the best quality of tennis although Soares looked a few levels above everyone else in his match against Murray and was the standout doubles player. Can see why he and Jamie Murray were so successful together.

I snuck in a few videos but they seem to be really hot on people uploading those so I'll leave a few pictures of the day.

I'd really recommend it for anyone that loves watching tennis.

That was all a bit too easy for Djokovic.

Even with his record against Djokovic, I can't see how Bautista Agut hurts him from the baseline.

Edit: That was a bit of a shocking set for Djokovic, his level plummeted.

Merlin5 · 12 Jul 2019 at 15:10

Lol, amazing 45 shot rally just now, but Djok wins that point

Cob · 12 Jul 2019 at 16:29

Right, let's do this

marc2003 · 12 Jul 2019 at 16:31

Not sure I can be bothered to watch this.

Merlin5 · 12 Jul 2019 at 17:02

4-3 in opening set. Neck and neck so far, possibly a clue to how the rest of the match will go. I want tiebreaks and 5 sets. And a penalty shootout.

marc2003 · 12 Jul 2019 at 17:08

That's how you serve yourself out of trouble. :cool:

Great first set and one Federer had to win to have a chance imo.

Azza · 12 Jul 2019 at 17:32

Is Federer actually human? Has someone cut him open to check he isn't some tennis cyborg machine?
